The horse is a mirror to your soul... and sometimes you might not like what you see in the mirror.

Discipline isn't a dirty word. Far from it. Discipline is the one thing that separates us from chaos and anarchy. Discipline implies timing. It's the precursor to good behavior, and it never comes from bad behavior. People who associate discipline with punishment are wrong: with discipline, punishment is unnecessary.

They say nerves heal real slowly. Lots of things about us heal real slowly.

The horse needs to respect you, but sometimes people confuse respect & fear. And they're not the same at all.

The horse saved my life, so that's kind of why I'll spend the rest of mine trying to help them.

The horse seems to wanna please the human and so many times if the human isn’t much of a leader well then the horse has gotta do it’s own thinking. The horse isn’t really designed very well to be the leader but just because the horse is responding to ya, I don’t really think of it as it succumbing to you. I think it’s more of the horse sort of joining you, being more of a partner.

A lot of times, rather than helping people with horse problems, I'm helping horses with people problems.
